album Kylie Minogue - 'Tension II'

[PaloSanto]

listening using the cassette/vinyl tracklist and it works better than I thought it would

[Musicology]

 It's a nice party album for the gym and the gay clubs. Other than that, justice for "Running" and the original "Hello" 

[Dragonfly]

Hmm, I loveTension, so I was excited to get into this

But I only like Dance to the Musique on first listen :x

[Burqa]

i think my tracklist is gonna be

 

Spoiler

01 Tension

02 Edge of Saturday Night

03 Kiss Bang Bang

04 Padam Padam

05 Hello 

06 Lights Camera Action

07 Good As Gone

08 Taboo

09 Vegas High 

10 Someone for Me 

11 Heavenly Body

12 Just Imagine

13 Diamonds 

14 Drum

 

i was sad about not including You Still Get Me High and Dance to the Music because I love them but they fit better with the others

I was also conflicted about Running as I don't know if I want the unreleaseds to be part of this 

My Oh My would 100% be on it if it didn't sound like a rough draft, the production is so cheap and it's a shame cause it's super catchy

Holding off listening to anything until tomorrow!

Reading the first reactions are so confusing, I've seen a lot of praise saying it's better than T1, while others say it's a weak b-side collection

Don't hear people saying it is a weak collection of b-sides it certainly isn't. The album is pretty good and I personally prefer it to Tension I as well. Really glad we got such an amazing album in such a short amount of time 😭

My vinyl was shipped today, but I will probably recieve it on Wednesday

After 2 listens, I'm actually a little bit disappointed. T1 >> T2 in my opinion.

LCA, Taboo, Kiss Kiss Bang Bang and Dance To the Music are my faves.

Some songs are too generic for my taste.

[Romova99]

I will not expect some kind of experimental/deep album from this, I know she's just enjoying the moment, having fun and exploring with this dance/electronic genre so I'll take it as that, a fun album to go with the tour and her latest album, so I'll keep my expectations low.

 

I'm liking 2 of the 3 snippets I've heard, her voice in GAG kind of sounds like the MOM song which I'm not a fan of but I'll wait until I listen to it in full.

[musicman]

She is a Icon, a legend. Why is she not working with TOP TIER producers. Its actually upsetting.

Her vocals sound unlistenable on most of this.

 

I feel the same for most of her BMg work sadly :(

 

They should spend less on making 100 variants and put more money into the music itself

I think there is only a single Tension II variant, is there not? Tension II is just a follow up album to Tension, not a variant of Tension.

I think the user meant CD and Vinyl variants

She can't afford it and B!G will not pay for them that's the top and bottom of it

I think they mean the physical variants which we got a lot of, lol

• CD
• Limited CD #1 - Diamond Edition
• Limited CD #2 - Island Edition
• Limited CD #3 - Gemini Edition
• Crystal Clear Vinyl (Standard)
• Yellow Vinyl (Indie Exclusive)
• Turquoise Vinyl (Kylie Store Exclusive)
• Coral Cassette (Kylie Store Exclusive)
• Test Pressing Vinyl

And probably some more are around the corner

[Rocket]

If you cut the end collabs (and Tapoo), this is a tight EP.

 

Diamonds is THAT ******* *****.

 

and well.....

 

Kiss bang bang

Baby, kiss bang bang

Let's be honest she can only sell physical versions of her album at this point that's where BMG is making money because streaming isn't her strong point

It seems to be the one getting playlist push on streaming (based on NZ & AU), so most likely it is!
